4) How will Lawrence Frank deal with Rodney Stuckey?
Stuckey has made ONE field goal in 23 attempts so far this season. One. During the Suns game, Stuckey was covering his ears whenever he walked by Frank. We’ve seen Stuckey do that to Flip Saunders, Curry and John Kuester so it didn’t come as much of a surprise. But it does turn out that Stuckey claims he’s battling a cold so that wasn’t an open act of defiance. (You can understand my assumption otherwise. Not like it hasn’t happened before.) Frank doesn’t play Charlie Villanueva and Austin Daye to which we all give thanks. And if Stuckey keeps this up, I see no reason to keep playing him, particularly if the wins aren’t coming. Stuckey has a year remaining on his deal after this one. He might be an attractive trade possibility if he’s able to shoot better than .043 from the field.
